Contacts 
(Can pick up and drop off)

Once a contact is added for a child, the system will automatically generate a code. You can only view and edit your own code in the app.

Does each contact have to have a Brightwheel account or download the app?

No, they will just used the code generated and assigned to them.  Please bring an ID and we look up your code, however, we cannot edit it. If someone desires to change their code, they will need to create a Brightwheel account.
